Training

The Ohio State PRC provides training and tools for community residents and organizations related to participating in disease prevention research and implementing evidence-based interventions.We also seek to enhance the training and tools related to community-based activities available to prevention researchers and graduate students at Ohio State University by doing the following:

Plan for a graduate-level course focused on community-based participatory research

Develop course syllabus and present to college divisions and Office of Academic Programs for approval

Increase the opportunities for graduate students (and others) at OSU to receive training (courses, seminars, and mentored field experiences) in community-based participatory research (CBPR) principles

Offer and promote mentored field experiences for graduate students related to CBPR

Promote the use of the Policy, Systems, and Environmental Change online training modules
